Godwin's Law!

My ma ape is currently teaching a course on political ideologies and found this image too deliciously funny to not post and proliferate. Where was this lovely piece of political wit and wisdom posted? Why, at the John McCain offices in Pompano, FL! Down with youth movements! Don't trust anyone under 65!

Gus, please tell your dad he needs to seriously revise his textbooks on Ideologies to reflect this Brave New World!

More of the Same, the Big Brain Edition!

Oh how we shall miss the wit and wisdom of our forty-third President. Witness:


"I remember meeting a mother of a child who was abducted by the North Koreans right here in the Oval Office."—Washington, D.C., June 26, 2008Full list of Bushisms here.

Remember before the 2004 debates when a Bush aide compared John Kerry's mad debating skillz to Cicero? It did a fine job of raising expectations for JK, lowering them for the President who sounds like Larry the Cable Guy. (Also remember the mysterious lump on Bush's back--look for one on Palin. I'm just sayin'). Same thing is happening with Palin. This morning on the news they seemed to indicate that so long as she does not wet herself or think the Bush Doctrine has to do with clearing brush in Crawford, she's going to win!

Well, I have some bad news for you. She might be the brains of the operation. In an interview with Spanish language radio, John McCain appears to believe that either 1) Spain is a part of the axis of evil 2) That Spain is in Latin America or 3) he has no idea who this Zapatero fellow is but he sounds like a villain from a Zorro movie.

Ready on day one, are we?

Stop the Blogs!

We cannot discuss how the U.S. can most safely disengage in Iraq, how the bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac reflects on the economy and U.S borrowing from China.

NO! We must not talk about these things until we resolve the most vital issue of the day: does John Kerry look funny windsurfing? did Obama call Palin a pig???!!!??

UR Doin It Wrong

That could just be the slogan of the GOP, eh? Visitor K gave me a link to this photo:


Oh you elitist liberals with your SPELLING and GRAMMAR.

The Whiff of Deperation

The latest anti-Obama argument comes to us from the journalistic minds of the Wall Street Journal: He's too skinny!

But in a nation in which 66% of the voting-age population is overweight and 32% is obese, could Sen. Obama's skinniness be a liability? Despite his visits to waffle houses, ice-cream parlors and greasy-spoon diners around the country, his slim physique just might have some Americans wondering whether he is truly like them.

We all want someone just like us! Like a Yale-educated cheerleader born to a wealthy Maine family with political connections? Or a Navy brat married to a multi-millionaire beer baron's daughter?? I sense this is a pre-emptive strikes against what will most certainly be an unflattering visual from the debates (ala Dukakis/Bush).

I do have to agree, however, with this sentiment by the wise political pundit, Sasha Obama:

During a July family appearance on "Access Hollywood," Sen. Obama's 7-year-old daughter, Sasha, revealed that her dad doesn't like ice cream or sweets. "Everybody should like ice cream," she said.

Anti-Obama arguments they will be making soon regarding the ways that He Is Not Like Us:

1) Too gosh darned smart.
2) His feet are larger than average.
3) He's never been arrested!
4) His family appears to like him.
5) Neither he, nor his father, vomited on the Japanese Prime Minister or any world leader.
6) He showers regularly.

One of us! One of us! One of us!
